ELP English Classes

Purpose of the English Language Program

English classes at many universities do not carry any credit. Other universities offer credit which cannot be used toward your degree or offer credit only for a few select classes. ALL ELP classes carry academic credit. Undergraduates can apply up to 15 hours of this credit toward a Bachelor's degree. The department will decide how to best apply the credits.

These classes are for students who wish to study English for their own goals or who wish to prepare themselves for academic work in the University. Students take 18 hours of classes every week. In addition, there are optional lab hours, orientation, test prep and conversation classes. They receive 18 hours of undergraduate credits, 15 of which can be applied toward an undergraduate degree at the descretion of the department.

The English Language Program offers a number of support courses to assist students with their transition to university life in the U.S.
